Adding a post to this thread with information on the Dorco for Barber HST300 half blades that folks have seen recently. There is limited information from Dorco itself beyond a single product listing (link below) for these blades with limited information that at least confirms they are a real Dorco product.
It appears that they come in both blue and red boxes with red the most common. The Maggard listing for these (offering blue box blades) notes the following (copied from Maggard website):
Maggards lists the blue blades as #HST300-1P and the red as #HST300R-1P.

It appears that they come in both blue and red boxes with red the most common. The Maggard listing for these (offering blue box blades) notes the following (copied from Maggard website):
- The Dorco Blue single edge razor blades, born from Dorco’s great production experience, exclusively use superior quality steel without additional coatings to achieve a sharpening that can easily perform both perfect shaves and precision finishes thanks to the special Sharp&Round technology that allows the blade to be both sharp and rounded at the same time
- Dorco Blue razor blades vs Dorco Prime (red)
The main difference between the Dorco Blue razor blades and the Dorco Prime (Red) lies mainly in the steel used for production which in the case of the PRIME versions is Japanese manufactured (Japanese stainless steel).
Maggards lists the blue blades as #HST300-1P and the red as #HST300R-1P.
